The vibes on the West Coast couldn’t have been better. Fresh off his debut Coachella performance, West Coast artist Blxst, has teamed up with Atlanta icon Offset to deliver a new summer anthem, “Risk Taker.” Departing from his signature LA-rooted R&B sound, Blxst introduces a tropical-infused melody and afro-inspired beat, showcasing his versatility and multi-dimensional artistry.
Moreover, the collaboration with Offset seems like a natural fit. The Atlanta rapper reached out to him after hearing his work on “Before You Go.” Inspired by Offset’s “risk taker energy,” Blxst was eager to lend his talents to the project, citing Offset as his favorite Migo and expressing admiration for his fashion and flow. For Blxst, working with Offset on “Risk Taker” felt like a full circle moment, highlighting their shared creative vision and mutual respect.
In addition, “Risk Taker” marks the beginning of a new chapter for him, with the track set to appear on a larger body of work slated for release later this year. Fans can expect more details to be announced soon, as Blxst continues to solidify his status as one of the industry’s most promising talents.
Next up for Blxst is the Blavity House Party in Nashville on June 14-15, where he’ll share the stage with household names like Lil Wayne and Monica. With “Risk Taker” poised to dominate the airwaves this summer, Blxst is gearing up for his biggest year yet, ready to make waves. Moreover, West Coast artists are coming in full swing this summer.
